Singapore Joke - Goddess and God
A European tourist was visiting a temple in Singapore when he noticed astatue, with two faces, a man and a woman, back to back, by the altar.
He asked the monk what was the significance of the two.
The monk explained that in the Chinese belief of yin and yang,positives must always be balanced by negatives, and having the statuewith two sides ensures that the universal balance is maintained.
"This statue of the woman is the Goddess of Mercy, Kuan-Yin."
"What about the other one?" asked the tourist.
"The one with the man's face is the God of No Mercy, Kuan-Yew."
